CHARACTER is a LEGACY 

The Function of Education is to Teach One to Think............
Intensively & to Think Critically.............
Intelligence Plus Character.............
That is the Goal of True Education.............
Life is a Series of Experiences,............. 
Each One of which Makes us Bigger,.............
Even though Sometimes it is Arduous to Realize this..............
For the World was Built to Develop Character,.............
& we must Learn that the Setbacks and Grieves.............
Which we Endure Help us in Our Marching Onward..............
Character is Like a Tree and Reputation.............
Like a Shadow............. 
The Shadow is what we Think.............
The Tree is the Real Thing.............
Character can Not be Developed in Ease and Quiet.............
Only through Experience of Trial and Suffering.............
Can the Mind be Strengthened,.............
Vision Cleared, Ambition Inspired, and Success Achieved..............
True Freedom is the Capacity for Acting.............
According to One's True Character,.............
To be Altogether One's Self,.............
To be Self-determined and Not Subject to Outside Coercion.............
Character is the Willingness to Accept Responsibility.............
For One's Own Life  is the Source.............
From which Self-respect Springs.............
A Man of Character Finds a Special Attractiveness.............
In Difficulty, Since it is Only by Coming to Grips.............
With Difficulty that he can Realize his Potentialities.............
Knowledge Gives you Power.............
But Character Gains Respect............
The Greatest Legacy One can Pass On.............
To One's Children and Grandchildren is Not Money............. 
Or other Material Things Accumulated in One's Life,.............
But Rather a Legacy of Character and Wisdom.............
Legend Remains Victorious in Spite of History..............
Each day Means a New twenty-four hours.............. 
Each day Means Everything's Possible Again............. 
You Live in the Moment,.............
You Die in the Moment,............. 
You Take it All One Day at a Time.............
People Grow through Experience.............
If they Meet Life Honestly and Courageously.............
This is how Character is Built.............
